XDA wise idea.When I read the age and appearance on your character, it was like seeing a ghost. He reminds me of Kidney, which both horrifies and fascinates me. Kidney was the greatest antagonist ever to grace the pages of Twisted, just so you know.The only issue I see with the CS is Roger’s ability to “distort reality”. To be able to actually distort the reality of the dimension is just too strong: coupled with his advanced dementia, he’d be housed downstairs. I have two suggestions for how to fix this. One: Roger is able to distort the reality of one person, and only at a time when they are overcome with emotion. (Be it any emotion or a particular one like nostalgia or wistfulness.) Two: (I like this one better!) He carries with him a small, unassuming writing implement. Instead of drawing on paper, he can draw on the fabric of reality and send little cartoon animals, people, whatever, bouncing out of thin air. I would think he’d have to wear some kind of gloves to keep him from imbuing these creations with the strength and willpower to do any harm, and they might even break apart when touched or when bumping into something too roughly. (In my mind, I see fine-gauge titanium chains around Roger’s wrists, outside the gloves, making them impossible to take off… but the specific details are up to you.)Or, if you have another idea for his powers, feel free to bounce it off me. I’m all ears! :)The others are right, Roger is wonderful. It's the first time I've seen a super soldier done in a manner that didn't make him seem the sort to pull a Leroy Jenkins. Well done!
I had no intention of taking him to the point of altering reality beyond small things, like maybe flipping a switch. Not even that, really. His reality bending is all focused around toony like things. Perhaps, a hole in the floor that creates a cycling loop if something is dropped in it, a bird coming off a coo-coo clock and flying away, a group of toy soldiers suddenly pick themselves up and start fighting with one another. Perhaps he is attached to a machine that feeds him sedatives. Although, he doesn't do a lot of action, it'll kind of slow down his brain so nothing too crazy happens. I would normally like the idea of drawing, but Roger is pretty much zoned out 80% of the time, perhaps muttering to himself at most.
I would not object to writing an example post, but it would probably be what I have in mind for my opening introduction post.
